Instructions
1Mix the self-rising flour, sugar, speculaas spice mix and salt. Add the butter and milk and knead into a firm ball of dough. Start with 6 tablespoons of milk, if the dough is too stiff you can add more milk.
2Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. You can process and bake it immediately, but the flavor will be much better if you let it rest.

Chef tips
To achieve that perfect crisp texture and deep spice flavor, let the dough rest in the fridge overnight before baking; it will make it much easier to roll out and handle. For a nut-free version, swap the almond spread for a high-quality date paste with a pinch of cinnamon. Kids will love helping with the egg wash and topping the cake with sliced almonds.
